Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Psychology - Social Psychology, City University of New York Hunter College, course: Professional Seminar, language: English, abstract: Following the death of a spouse, sibling, friend or significant other, there are general ways that individuals usually grieve. This has been shown through countless amounts or research and articles. Being able to understand the unique nature of twin loss will allow for counselors and social work practitioners to be able to lend their support and find ways to guide individuals that have lost their twin as well as guide families and parents through this time. This paper explores the symptomology of individuals at different developmental stages and the impact that bereavement has on their identity development. In addition this paper will examine the different grief levels and twin attachment styles along with western and non-western beliefs surrounding the life and death of twins in hopes to bring light to a forgotten population, 'Twinless twins'.

Many wonderful books have been written for children on the death of a family member, but this is the first of its kind to be written for twins who have lost their other half. Often, the surviving twin feels lonely and abandoned without understanding why. In some cases, the family isn't even aware of the trauma that the survivor faces. This precious story tells about one identical twin and what she experienced when her sister died. It is a spiritual journey to heaven and back as you learn how one child went deep within her heart to find the answers to life's most baffling questions: what happens when we die? Is there life after death? Are we eternal beings? And why are we here?

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates this holiday. I think it is always good to give thanks. It is not a holiday in my homeland, Jamaica, but I take time out to give thanks for my relatives and friends, the wonderful persons I have met online, the strides I have made in my writing and blogging this year, the strength and courage I have had in facing health challenges and the departed loved ones who have left me with with special memories. In that mode I share one of my favourite quotations- "Gratitude is the best attitude." What are you most thankful for this year? How are you celebrating Thanksgiving 2013?
